Suit and Tie

By Dreamscape

I have a suit made out of liquor
I have a tie made out of pills
And the devil is so eager
That tonight we are dressed to kill
I have a fake friend in my backseat
I have a stranger on my lap
There are ethics in me somewhere
But I just can’t find the map

This reminds me of a Showtime presentation called, "Nurse Jacky." It might be worth the watch to you. I also like the ending about the map; It reminds me of when I was first writing during the time of being stoned. "Map it out," I kept saying to myself. :)

You wrote this poem like you would build a house and I like what you've done with the place. This takes me back to a place I enjoy remembering. You're a good addition to this community, as strange as it can be. don't know how long you've been here but, I'm glad you came. Nice job.

Great introductory to Darkpoetry! Those last 4 lines were sheer perfection. I know I'm a bit late but welcome, stick around.
